A base should take government money from its sector/empire capital to pay the soldiers. If not enough money is available the base get a morale penalty.
This would make a sort of limit to the size of bases you can have without also having equally big cities with enough tax income.
It does make sense for the government to pay their military a large amount of their tax income, right?
Only issues I for see is lack of an empire wide budget view, listing income from each city and expenses fron each base.
Other than that there are some borderline exploity ways to make government money, but those need fixing at some point I guess.
